Dear Scott:

How small is small for your "small anagama"?

The Clayart archives reference a little book about a little wood burning
kiln, a "minigama". The book is well illustrated and practical "how to"
about building one of these puppies.

And then someone named Bailey posted a gallery of pix of their minigama
being used.

Enjoy!
